DataSource Controls :: Creating / Loading DataTable Into SQL Server Database?
May 26, 2010
If I have a DataTable (in-memory) read by my C# program from a flat file, and I want to create it as a new table in a SQL Server database... what is the simplest way to do that?
It seems like something like SqlBulkCopy with an option to create a new destination SQL server table would be on my line of thinking, but I dont see a way.
I am trying to load data from an existing DataTable into a new DataTable. Not sure how to get it started. Do not want to merely copy data, I need to load it in row by row.
protected DataTable GalleryByCat() { // GLinks is the new DataTable I want to construct and bind to a DataList, Repeater, ListView
When using the DataTable.Load(SQLDataReader) method, if the datatable is a property of a class, the set method is not called to populate the object. For example...
MySQLDataReader = command.ExecuteReader(); if (MySQLDataReader.HasRows)
myObjDataTable.Load(MySQLDataReader); -- The result of this will be 0 rows returned. The "Set" method of the object is never called.
i am trying to create connection using OLEDB connection in my app. but i am not able to create the connection as in datasource i want to use Server.mappath, but cudn't find the right method to use it. i am trying to make connection with Access database file. following is code i have tried:
string path = Server.MapPath("~/uploadaccess/Production.mdb"); string ConnectionString = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("~/uploadaccess/Production.mdb")&";"; and also OleDbConnection myConnection = new OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & path&";"); and tried this OleDbConnection myConnection = new OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("~/uploadaccess/Production.mdb"));
and this is the error i am getting:
Operator '&' cannot be applied to operands of type 'string' and 'string'
Never really worked with the asp tables but for this project it makes more sense, I am having trouble addding rows dynamically from the sql datatable i am pulling. In hte datatable it has 12 rows with 14 columns, I need to make this into a table, with a dtagrid I would be done but I have to pull other data that they could add columns, so a table I am told is easier.
This gets my data and I can see it
mydataTable = new DataTable mydataTable = GetData(sql) mydataTable.add.row(myDataTable.rows(0)(0))
I get nothing but errors trying to do this, what is the correct way to add rows to an asp.net table
Can I add this all to a datagrid and then add the extra columns I need if they are there with out using a table.
I've got a MS SQL (Express) database. its quite complex and uses a lot of tables. Is there a way to generate a SQL script for creating the complete database, but not the content of it.
I like to copy the database. Right now i copy the database. After that i need manually to clear all fields. There are also some relationships, so its a lot of work to clear all of it manually.
I have a datatable for which i'm defining a dataadapter. I'm specifying an updatecommand with sqlparameters for the dataadapter I set the updatecommand's parameters using the following overload:
[Code]....
The length 16 is used because this is the length of the field according to sql (the image datafield is a pointer of size 16) I noticed .Net is actually truncating the string because of the length i'm setting. An image of size 3kb will properly upload if we set the length field to be greater than 3kb The question I have is what is the proper value (or strategy) to use in order to set for the length field so that ALL images will properly update to the database, with each using the appropriate size.
I guess i could theoretically set the length to be maxint, but this seems sloppy. Looking at sqlparameter documentation i didnt see an 'unlimited' or 'default' length i could set, which would allow each update statement called to use the appropriate size for the data length for that row.
i have the dataset with one table.Table contains three column like 'Name','Location','Pin'.I would like to move the data from another table based on schema.
I have two datatables, I want to get all records which are in one datatable but all matching records which exist in another datatable should not be available.
In terms of set, you can say that record which are in 1st datatable but not in 2nd DataTable.
I have created web pages using VS Web Developer that use a local Developer Edition of SQL server database on my PC with LINQ to SQL. When I deploy my website to a remote web host SQL server, I need for my web pages to be able to use the remote database instead of the local database. So, how do I get the Server Explorer to connect with a remote SQL Server database?
I want to copy a database on a development server to my local server. I am not the server administrator but I have rights to the database. Soon after the wizard Executes the SQL Server Agent Job it fails and the error message says:
The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details.
Where do I find this log? Also what could be the problem?
I wanted to use the "create database query" from my ASP.Net page, say "install.aspx". So that when the page is run, it works as an automated tool to create database and tables required for the application.
I want to host my web site on an ISP hosting provider because my upload speed is not sufficient, however I want the database to be hosted locally.1) Is this possible?2) Does SQL server require good upload bandwidth?3) How much data (just an estimate) would it use to retrieve 20 rows of 10 columns?4) I realise this is not an ASP question so can you direct me to where I should post this if noone wants to answer it?
